Abstract
In a joint statement, the African Union Commission (AUC), the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (ECA) and the African Development Bank (AfDB) have convened a major pre-event in New York on 22 September at the Conference Room 7, in the General Assembly building, under the theme, ‘Moving against the tide: “Africa rising to seize climate change opportunities” Water, Food and Energy Security’. The event aims to bring to the fore Africa’s particular climate challenges and opportunities and its efforts to turn these challenges into development opportunities. The side event aims to showcase how the ClimDev-Africa programmes has strengthened Africa’s capacity to ‘move against the tide’ to ensure water, food, energy security in changing climate, according to Ms Fatima Denton, Director of Special Initiatives Division at the ECA, and one of the key organizers of the side event. The Climate for Development in Africa (ClimDev-Africa) Programme is a joint initiative of the African Union Commission (AUC), the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (ECA) and the African Development Bank (AfDB).
